Friday the 13th Fangoria issues

[Utellme]

What fangoria's have rare fr 13th things in them that the box set and the book Crystal Lake memories don't cover if any.I was told issue 62 has some rare coverage on Fr 13th part 6.

[CampNewBlood]

I was gonna make a thread fot this, but didn't for some reason. Glad there is one though.

I can't wait to get my 4 issues I won on eBay. I'm so looking forward to going through them. I need to look for that one....#62.....sounds cool.

[Shoesalesman]

The only F13 related Fangorias I have are #44 (A New Beginning with a Jason/Roy fold out) and one of FVJ. Not sure what would make them special as I don't know what's considered rare or unique.

[Wheatjedi]

A few of the issues are sold out, but you can still order several of the Fangos that featured Friday the 13th from the Fangoria website. Most are affordable, but a few are a little pricey.

I have all of these issues, and most are worth the prices Fango has listed. I can only assume #'s 21, 22, 70, and 212 are more expensive because they are running low.

[Darth Sinister]

I have the JGTH Fangoria special which had interviews with the cast and some of the crew, plus the various actors who played Jason and the leading ladies. I don't know how much is missing from "Crystal Lake Memories", but I'm assuming it's not a whole lot.

[Gringo Loco]

I would love to collect old Fangorias with Jason in them or even Freddy/Michael. Unfortunately I don't have the room to store them or I would. You guys should do scans of the covers (or the whole interview :) ) and post them here.

[Utellme]

Yeah that would be sweet is that allowed ? If yes that would save all of us money and hassle of getting them

[Duke Nukeum]

I have all the issues myself. Even the ones that are sold out like Part's 2 and 4 that are covered in those three issues that are sold out. That part 4 issue has been sold out a long time two. I remeber in 93 it was even sold out. I ended up getting it later from another place but wasn't real impressed. Must have been something else in that issue besides part 4 coverage that people really liked. If anybody is ever in Pittsburgh PA for any reason go to a comic book store there called Eides. I forget the name of the street but it is right over by Grey Hound bus depot and The Westin Hotel right under a train bridge. Can't miss it. It is a huge comic store. 3 floors. Basement is where the comics, magazines and collectables is at, ground floor is CD's, Cassetts, and Vinyle Records, and the second floor is DVD's, VHS, Books and a small porn section. I bought tons of Fangoria's there.:D I used to order all my Fangoria's with Friday The 13th featured in them but after discovering Eide's back in 98 curtosy of a hotel waiter who told me and my parents about it I have been getting all the issues of Fangoria there ever since. Plus the old Marvel Transformer Comics I collect which I managed to complete my collection and even got issue 1 there. There are tons of other good comics there two. They have everything. Didn't mean to get off topic but if you want to get just about any issue of Fangoria and some issues of there other mags like Gorezone and Toxic Horror they are there. Yeah I have been collecting Fangoria with Jason in them since I was 7. I will never forget when I was in 1st grade taking the last issue that covered Part 8 with Jason on the top left cover and all that. The teacher about croaked. I even told Kane Hodder about that one when I met him. He thought that was pretty funny. Especially since it was him as Jason on the cover.:jason:

"Come Get Some!" Duke Nukeum

[Wheatjedi]

You guys should do scans of the covers (or the whole interview :) ) and post them here.

While I would love to put up all the covers and articles from my Fango issues that covered the F13 films (in addition to the Halloween and Nightmare films), I doubt Fango would appreciate it seeing as it is copyrighted material that they continue to make a profit on. Their lawyers sure would though love it though!

[Gringo Loco]

I wonder if they would have a cow if the covers appeared and not the articles.

[Wheatjedi]

You can see the covers at their website. Just go to the Gore Store and check out the back issues.

[Lammert]

I have all those old Fangorias covering Friday the 13th. And some other magazines like Gore Zone and Slaughterhouse.
I might sell some of them in the near future.

[Gringo Loco]

You can see the covers at their website. Just go to the Gore Store and check out the back issues.

yeah but are they good size pics? I think I saw a few and they are tiny pics. I wan't to be able to read what's in the mag.

[Wheatjedi]

The cover images aren't very big, but you can click on the cover pics and get a description of the main stories that are in that particular issue.

[Utellme]

It would be sweet if fangoria or the fans could put together a Ultimate edition Fr 13th magazine with all the pics and articles,Fr 13th front covers,posters from all the fangos.gorezone's bloody best,horror spectacular,Fango poster mag and toxic horror,JGTH and FVS J mags all into one ultimate edition as well as TCM, NOES and Halloween

[CampNewBlood]

I wanna collect all the ones with F13th, Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, etc.

[Rick]

I have most of the issues from part 7 to JGTH.
I have the 2-issue Women of Crrystal Lake feature that had interviews with all of the ladies from 1-7.
I also have the JGTH official mag.
I have 2 issues covering FvsJ but missed one as well. I was pretty pissed.

[CampNewBlood]

I won 3 more issues on eBay tonight.

One with Halloween 4 on the cover.

One with Freddy on the cover for the release of Nightmare on Elm Street 2.

And an issue of The Bloody Best of Fangoria # 2...it shows Richard Brooker in Jason makeup on the front.

[Ron]

the next fangoria issue I want is for them to adress the issue of there raging increase in price, and issue an apology!

[Killa Pimp]

the next Fangoria issue I want is for them to address the issue of there raging increase in price, and issue an apology!

Damn Skippy!
This is getting outrageous.

$8.99 for them to pump up PG-13 horror remakes and maybe 2 decent movies an issue that you've probably already read about on the web.

I get 30% off because I get it from my local comics shop through Diamond Publications. I am seriously thinking about dropping this magazine. The Internet is Killing it. They are now starting to be months behind. AIN'T it cool news and more specifically Bloody Disgusting, Dark Horizons, Dread central and Evil Dread are way ahead.

They also seem to ask the same questions for every movie they review or get a sneak peek at.

For example,
"Insert Director or Producer's name here," How do you expect this bloodless, talentless PG-13 crap fest to differ from the awesome, Innovative, one of a kind, great, original that did not need to be RE-MADE/ RE-IMAGINED anyway??
:duh:

I actually have every issue... The only thing that keeps me going is to be a completest. But the quality is waning greatly. But it may have more to do with the product being produced nowadays than the magazine itself.

[Wheatjedi]

For those who want to read the text of some vintage Friday the 13th-related Fango articles, go to campblood.shiversofhorror.com/index2.htm. Several (but not all) of the features they ran back in the 80s can be found transcribed in the "Articles" section.

[Gringo Loco]

Thanks for that Wheat. I'll check it out after I finish watching The Devils Rejects.

[Wheatjedi]

Sure! I can't believe the guy actually had the time to transcribe some of the longer articles. One that may be of particular interest is the article for Friday the 13th Part 2. That one's from Fangoria #12, and that issue has been sold out for years.

[CampNewBlood]

I won that Fangoria #22 on eBay for $13.25 last night. It's the one that has Halloween III on the cover and Friday the 13th Part 3 effects inside. The seller actually had 3 copies of it and I got one.

It is still listed on Fangoria's Gore Store as being $100 if you buy it from them.

I was ecstatic when I got it! I also got one from the same seller that has 'V' on the front of it. :D

It was odd reading in my #83 issue, an interview with Frank Mancuso Jr. (producer at the time) where he was talking fondly about being involved with all the Friday films and how he mentioned it was a possibility of he and Paramount making 13 films. He said as long as they were profitable that they would continue to make them.

He also mentioned they had talked about doing a movie that pitted Jason against Freddy, but they could never get things together for it to happen. He went on to say, who knows....it may happen one day.

That's so cool reading that and knowing what we know now.

[Lammert]

I'm still looking for the Variety issue wich had the first mention of Friday the 13th ever... It was a advertisement of the F13 3D logo smashing trough glass with the text "the scariest movie every made".
This was before a script had been written.

[Utellme]

For those who want to read the text of some vintage Friday the 13th-related Fango articles, go to campblood.shiversofhorror.com/index2.htm. Several (but not all) of the features they ran back in the 80s can be found transcribed in the "Articles" section.
Thats cool now where the pics from the magazines be found ?

[Wheatjedi]

Some can be found at fridaythe13thfilms.com. Others can be found in Crystal Lake Memories and Making Friday the 13th.

[Patrick]

Thanks guys! :)

[Patrick]

Hey does anyone know if there were any issues that had Jason Lives and Jason Takes Manhattan on the cover? I have never seen any.

[kramerfan]

Ive seen some with jason from part 8 on cover.

[Patrick]

Yea I have seen some HorrorHound issues or something like that on eBay that has Jason from JTM on the cover with his hands up by his mask.

[johnboy3434]

Could someone with Fangoria #130 be so kind as to scan (or, if that's not allowed, transcribe) the Ft13 timeline they have there? I think a website I found gave the dates they used, but I just wanted to see the original source to make sure. Any help would be appreciated. I'm constructing a hybrid NoES/Ft13 timeline so I can watch all the films in chronological order this Halloween.

[Rich]

You know, I remember the Jason Goes to Hell magazine. Now, I wish I had purchased it when I saw it.

I found that a little while back cleaning up my closet!

[Sean [The Wildcard]]

I was able to grab some issues at the new Video Game and Collectibles store that opened in town. He has maybe 4 more stacks of old Fangos, selling them at $2 each. So I picked these up today, and will most likely pick up some more tomorrow.

Awesome! Thanks so much for the heads up. I'm a 15 minute drive from the Burg, so I need to check this out.

[Sean [The Wildcard]]

I headed back to that new store in town, and picked up 10 more classic issues. I also grabbed a Toxic Avenger statue, and today I got two HELLRAISER cenobite action figures.

I'll try and take pics of the other issues I got.

I have it. Let me see if I can find a host.
ADDED:
It's gonna take a while for me to upload it. If you are on dialup, don't even think about trying to download this, hehe. It's about 190mb worth of scans.

[DavidDunn]

Those are truly wonderful, Silver Shamrock. I do remember a Part VIII cover with a close-up of Jason's piss yellow mask. I had the Freddy vs. Jason collector's mag, but loaned it to a buddy to scan some of the images and never saw the thing again. I just bought it for the Nightmare film retrospect "Nightmare's Past" (the Friday one was incomplete as the brunt of the series was owned by Paramount). I'd give a testicle or three to own the 49th and 50th issues covering Freddy's Revenge, the Batman Returns special, and anything about Part V or VIII. It ain't asking much, is it?

[Spook]

I have the official Freddy vs. Jason magazine, but that's about it. I really would like to pick up some vintage issues of Fangoria. I've read a couple issues, but that doesn't cut it for me.

[sCabbOy]

I will re upload that ZIP, I must have deleted it.

The new URL is

It may be a few minutes before it is done uploading.

[AmonStone]

I believe it was issue 36 that got me into Fangoria. It's got the Axel kill on the cover. A friend of mine told me about a magazine that he had seen at a bookstore with Friday the 13th on the cover, and knowing that I liked the movies, told me about it. I went to the store a couple of days later, and bought it. Read Fangoria up to around issue 150 when I pretty much lost interest.
Anyone know when the price went up, that was about the time I stopped buying it.
Shame I sold all my issues off years ago, be fun to flip thru them.

[Utellme]

I want to get issue 37 Gorezone it has a Friday the 13th companion book with it.

[Patrick]

I want to get issue 37 Gorezone it has a Friday the 13th companion book with it.

Me too. My local Books-A-Million carries them. I keep checking every week when I'm off from work to see if they have the new issue in. Is it the December issue?

[Rich]

I own the official Freddy vs. Jason magazine. Also, thanks to a fellow board member I got my hands on the official Jason Goes to Hell magazine (a mag I have always wanted). I like it better then the FVJ one.

[Utellme]

Me too. My local Books-A-Million carries them. I keep checking every week when I'm off from work to see if they have the new issue in. Is it the December issue?

I think it was the Halloween 2008 issue when i called barnes n noble they said check back in Dec. Since Gorezone is in UK it takes awhile for the issue to get to the U.S.

[Death Bed]

Does anyone know which issues told the stories behind all the aborted FvJ scripts?

[Patrick]

I think it was the Halloween 2008 issue when i called barnes n noble they said check back in Dec. Since Gorezone is in UK it takes awhile for the issue to get to the U.S.

Ok cool. I need to check when i'm off Wednesday.

[Utellme]

I stopped at Barnes n Noble and looked at all 3 issues of Gorezone 37 none of them had the F13th book in it ?

[Patrick]

I bought the January issue of Fangoria at Barnes-N-Noble and the reports of the onset visits to F13th and MBV are pretty cool. Can't wait to get the next issue with Jason on the cover.

There's also a story about a Scottish horror film about a werewolf in there (that I haven't read yet) but it looks cool from the photos. It's called 'Wild Country'. Has anyone seen that?

[Patrick]

Anyone got the new issue? I'm gonna pick up one tomorrow.

[Lance Lives]

I have the official FvJ issue, and it was great. Strange story, a buddy of mine's friend was working at a grocery store and an old lady came in and said "Do any of you boys like dirty magazines?" Her husband had died and she just came to the store and gave a box full of his old porno mags to a kid I'm pretty sure was under 18 at the time. To the point, my friend ended up with the box and it had the official Jason Goes to Hell mag in it, without a cover though. He knew I loved the series so he gave it to me.

[Patrick]

LOL......that is funny.

I got the new Fangoria last week with the new Jason on the front.....very cool read.

[sCabbOy]

I need to remember to get the new issue.

I have pretty much every issue with Jason/F13

[Matt326]

LOL......that is funny.

I got the new Fangoria last week with the new Jason on the front.....very cool read.

i picked it up and it was a very good read.They have some cool pic's too.

[Utellme]
